John Wallace of CENTURY 21 Select Real Estate, Inc.

John Wallace is the example that all real estate agents/brokers should follow. He is very professional, knowledgeable and has excellent communication with his clients every step of the way. He provides appropriate feedback and is respectful of his clients wishes. I first met John Wallace as a first time homebuyer and had such a great experience working with him that when I went to sell that same home I bought, I asked him to help me sell it and he did! I will recommend John Wallace to any family member or friend as a potential buyer or seller.

When we decided to sell, I knew exactly who to call. I had spoken to John on several occasions, through our business, and knew that he would be the perfect fit. That was a decision that proved to be spot on. After being in our home for 25 years, we had no idea where to start with the selling process, but John did. He guided us through the listing process, spent hours making sure our contract was exactly the way we wanted it, and never once pushed us to proceed until we were ready. John made suggestions and explained why that suggestion might work for us. We were not just another client. With John Wallace, you are treated as though you are his only client. We knew that finding the right property would be difficult. We run a business out of our home and need to have space for that, and, we had just sold my dad's home in order to bring him closer to us, so that we could care for him. Unfortunately, we had no sooner started looking at replacement homes when the devastating fires in Paradise took place. John was encouraging, yet realistic, about us finding a home in the now slim market. As we put offers in on one house after another, and got outbid, time after time, John wouldn't let us lose hope. About the time that we felt like we would never find another home, John called and told me about a new listing. It was only online for a few minutes, showing just the outside of the home, then it was taken down. It was the most beautiful house I'd ever seen, and perfect for us, but it was on hold. The house was in probate and no one knew how long the legal process could take. For three months John contacted the seller's agent, on almost a daily basis, reminding them that we were still interested. Each time he got a response, he shared it with us, good or bad, and kept us apprised of the progress, or the lack there of. He never let us give up hope. Persistence, and an awesome agent, payed off. After several months of staring at the exterior pictures of a house that already felt like ours, we were finally able to go inside. We put an offer in immediately, then waited as the lawyers and courts went through the process. It felt as though it would never end... But, with John's guidance, we ended up signing the papers on that home about two weeks ago. Every time I walk in the door, I have to smile, because we waited so long to make that house ours. John was so much more than a real estate agent. He offered hope and encouragement, friendship, patience and never ending professionalism. For us, it was so much more than just deciding we wanted to move. I had my aging father to worry about, and a business to take into consideration; John understood that and went above and beyond what we asked of him. He was with us from the very start, through all of the difficulties and disappointments, and there to share the happiness the day we could call the house ours. I firmly believe that if we hadn't had John in our corner, we would still be looking for a home.

I learned from John Wallace what a difference sales experience and teamwork with local businesses can make. He was recommended by a trusted friend of a trusted friend and I am so glad! He has sold two properties for us now and also set up a few home tours for us. He is a good man!

I have worked with John Wallace many times. When you work with him he makes you his top priority. He is truly an outstanding agent.

I feel that John really went above and beyond in many aspects. We don't live in Chico, and when a neighbor of the property for sale saw that someone had broken into the house, she called me and I called John and John was at the property five minutes later, went through the house, called the police, and handled the situation for us. I never would have expected that. John made sure that nothing was forgotten. While selling a house on behalf of a 91 year old mother, shortly after the death of my 91 year old father, can not realistically be described as "easy", John certainly did everything possible to make it as easy on me and as easy on my mother as I could possibly imagine. When I got frustrated, he calmed me down with horror stories of other sales. When the Camp Fire was dominating the national news, he called to tell me the house was okay. He made helpful suggestions to our contractor regarding minor repairs and fixes that prevented possible delays later. I cannot imagine how to improve on John's performance except if he had acted as the agent for both us and the buyer. I really appreciated John throughout the entire process. We are in Reno NV and thought that selling the house in Chico would be very time-consuming due to the distance. John made it really easy. He was very understanding dealing with our personal situation. I really appreciated John throughout the entire process.

He went above and beyond dealing with a very difficult seller. Im in another city, so John set up all the different inspections, repairs etc. I couldn't have done it without him! He's the best!
